Step 1

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (180 degrees C).

Step 2

Fry the Bacon (6 slices) and set aside. Rinse the Jalapeño Peppers (16) , and pat dry. De-stem them, and cut in half lengthwise. Take a small knife, and remove as much of the seeds and membranes as you like.

Step 3

Mince the Garlic (1 clove) . In a medium bowl, add the Cream Cheese (1 1/2 cups) , Grated Parmesan Cheese (3 Tbsp) , and garlic. Mix everything together.

Step 4

Chop up the bacon, and add it to the mixture. Stir until well blended. Spray a cookie sheet with cooking spray.

Step 5

Using a spoon, mound the cream cheese mixture into the jalapenos pepper, and top with grated Cheddar Cheese (2 cups) .

Step 6

Push the cheese into the cream cheese mixture so it sticks. Place onto the cookie sheet, and repeat with the rest of the peppers.

Step 7

Bake in the middle of the oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the tops are golden brown. Enjoy!
